Those aren't moabs... 5,000 lbs. bunker busters. These are dropped by B-2s and B-52s. Moabs are are so large they can only be dropped by slow moving C-130s. It would be suicide to fly a C130 over Baghdad right now.

No way..Those things could blow half the city away..

GBU-28 Penetrator

Type: 5,000-pound precision bomb
Guidance: Laser-guided
Launch: Launched from fighter aircraft like F-15E Strike Eagle
Use: Bomb has a hardened warhead designed to penetrate concrete objects like underground bunkers; developed during the Persian Gulf war as a "bunker-buster"

A MOAB (mother of all bombs) weighs 21,000 lbs. It's only recently been tested. It is not a bunker buster, but rather detonates just above the ground and flattens everything around it. Not something this campaign is about.

There is a 30,000lb bomb called Big BLU that might be ready for use in Iraq.

And there are C-130s and C-131s over there. They've shown them.
